Book Synopsis Bloody Tuesday by : John M. Giggie
Book excerpt: This compelling work recovers a neglected episode in the Black community's long struggle for full citizenship when police and Klansmen stormed First African Baptist Church and brutalized over 600 unarmed protestors preparing to march for freedom. Bloody Tuesday, as Tuscaloosa residents called the day, is one of the most violent episodes in the civil rights movement.
